POP3

The POP3 Profile Manager allows to to manage/create POP3 profiles on your local machine. A POP3 profile is used for receiving an email. The left side of the profile manager allows you to view and edit the information that is used by a profile. If you have more than one profile available, you can browse through them by clicking the blue navigation buttons. The right side of this windows gives you access to some managing options for the profile. Please note that every profile needs a valid profile name so please enter a name of your choice in the field "Profile Name" before saving it.

New Profile

Allows you to create a new POP3 profile that is being used to receive emails. Please enter the email address of the associated POP3 account and specify the POP3 server address as well as the Port number. Any mail server that supports POP3 protocol can be used here. If the POP3 server requires an encrypted connection, you have to activate the "SSL" box that can be found next to the port number. You also have to specify the user name as well as the password for this account. Please also specify the timeout value which is the amount of seconds the application will wait for data to be received from the server before returning an error, or zero to wait indefinitely. The default timeout value is 30 which is also recommended.

Save Profile
